Hi guys,

I am getting a GTX 280 this week and have been reading a lot here and there about noise of stock coolers. Currently I have a 8800 GTX so wondering if the noise level will be much higher with the 280?
I have always been thinking about getting a water cooled setup for my whole system; if for anything the hobby of it, but I am always concerned about water cooling the graphics cards because of the high price tag and fear of screwing up something and burning it out.
Are most stock video card coolers easy to remove and if so will most water cooled kits cool it or should I be looking at certain companies and models?

Just looking for some opinions guys and I am sure many of you on here own or know somebody with a GTX 280 and or water cooled systems so I figure I would ask here and get some feedback to see what people think and recommend.

Thanks

Rico
